Cosy Cats

Yesterday was bitterly cold. I worked in the polytunnel for a while, did a spot of watering after fixing the end of the hose which initially flew off with the stream of water and checked all the new growth. It seemed unfair to plant more when it was so cold, so I tucked up what I already had and left them warm and cosy.

After a spot of tidying on the patio I retreated to the warmth of the house and all the boring jobs (housework). When I walked in the living room the above picture is the sight that greeted me, the cats had decided that the settle made for a perfect bunkbed. One level each all warm and cosy. Top cat Toby on the top bunk of course.

Beautiful puddy cats♥♥ My 3 are asleep in various parts of the lounge while I am playing on my computer:) I'm starting at the beginning of Lavender's Blue.... and I am absolutely loving it. Wow what a thrilling journey for you and your DH. Cannot read it quick enough.

Sorry but I have added word verification to try and curtail the unprecedented amount of spammers recently posting comments. I will try this rather than stop Anonymous Users commenting for the time being to see if this will solve the problem. Thank you for your patience.

This is my Blog, just me writing about our day to day life on a hillside in North Wales. Along with our dogs, Suky and Mavis, our cat Ginger .... who secretly thinks he's one of the canine gang ... and a roving band of egg laying chickens that live cheek by jowl with the local wildlife.

We grow our own fruit and vegetables, selling surplus plants and edibles at the gate. We sell the eggs the chickens lay, we reuse, recycle and rethink ... and life ticks over at a pace that suits us.

It is simply the wild and wacky ramblings of a 50 something townie turned country girl called Sue, who lost her heart to a sailor and started a new life in the country .... over nine years ago. On a path that took us from Cumbria to Oxfordshire, to Berkshire and then we found our home at the bottom of a wet and windy Welsh hillside by a busy main road.

Pull up a chair, grab a coffee and relax into a world of dogs, cats, chickens, the occasional grass munching sheep ... and some pretty delicious vegan foods ... oh did I mention that I don't actually eat the eggs!!

Our New Life in the Country is my blog.

I use it to chart the day by day, week by week, year by year goings on in mine and Lovely Hubby's life. In it I also express my views and opinions, and say what I do andoccasionally how I do it. I am hoping that this will prove to be a useful reminder for myself of how we did things, as we continue in our learning process.

If you chose to follow my practices it is assumed that you will do so with care and consideration, and question where necessary any methods or techniques I use to your own satisfaction and match them to your own circumstances.
